Yeah I’m wondering why it would be Minnesota that the Sox would be getting extra from.
Ideally (IF they feel they have to trade him), Verdugo + Downs/Ruiz/Gonsolin is what I’m hoping for. They can throw in Graterol too, sure, but the Red Sox need two high-end pieces, at minimum, for Mookie and Price @ 50% retained.
And I think I’m with some others here on the Verdugo incident. Doesn’t seem like he did anything other than (likely?) being a dumb, drunk, college kid. A mistake to just stand by? Sure, but I’m not sure it is something to derail him forever.
